CONFESSION AND FORGIVENESS Pastor: Blessed be God, the holy Trinity, source of life, love, grace, and peace. Amen.(silence for reflection) Loving God, if we say we have no sin then we deceive ourselves and the truth is not

CHILDREN’S STORY “The Red Sea” Pastor Peter Johnson

READINGExodus 15:1-6“I will sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously; horse and rider he has thrown into the sea. The LORD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. The LORD is a warrior; the LORD is his name. “Pharaoh’s chariots and his army he cast into the sea; his picked officers were sunk in the Red Sea. The floods covered them; they went down into the depths like a stone. Your right hand, O LORD, glorious in power— your right hand, O LORD, shattered the enemy.
